Open edX is a large complex system.  We've tried to simplify the installation by providing a small number of options, prepackaged to varying degrees.  All of them require some foundational skills:

  • Comfort with your chosen operating system
  • Using the command line to perform tasks
  • Some ability to diagnose and solve problems with system software

The installation options are:

  • Devstack: a Vagrant installation that is useful if you want to modify the Open edX code.
  • Fullstack: a Vagrant installation that mimics a production environment.
  • Native: Automated installation on an Ubuntu machine of your own.
  • Manual: you are on your own, using our scripts as a guide. Read the Native instructions to find the scripts to study.
  • Bitnami: installable pre-packaged images for popular cloud platforms. Details are at the Bitnami Open edX page
